I'm sure Stotts is salivating at the chance to come back to the organization that kicked him to the curb

At least we were relevant when ol'George was here. As stated before, I'm all for Karl Part II.

Well, besides that, I think bigzy is referring to Karl and Stotts joining forces again. Things may have been patched up between them enough so that they can act civil towards each other, but they for sure are not friendly like they were prior to their relationship fracturing which resulted in Stotts leaving Karl in the first place.

you guys don't seem to understand- the Bucks are where they are today because of karl. And frankly, the Denver nuggets are where the y are today because of george karl. and tha t is on the outside fringe looking in.

The Nuggets have three bonifide all stars and are not going to make the play-offs. Why? george karl!

If you were told you would have nelo, iverson and camby, and then informed you would not make the play-offs, what would you say? And unlike pas t years, al l three have bee n healthy.

it's time to forget about how great george karl was. The Bucks big Three probably could have done a lot better without him. The USA National team could have done a lot better without him. The perimeter offense may get fans excited, but it is flawed. That playbook needs to be burned and destroyed along with all of the karl disciples who believe it works. (not literall y of course).

it's time Bucks fans woke up to see how karl has transformed the Nuggets into the Bucks West- an 8th -10 place team. karl might be super intelligent, but his teams always under-achieve , and his coaching style and motivational skills soon wears thin with his players.

Kohl still feels that Karl let him down and messed things up.


They both did in each other and let each other down. Kohl should have let George Karl stay on in his lame duck year to finish out his deal just like he is doing with GM Larry Harris now.

He threw away $7 million dollars and paid Karl for nothing for that year when he could have right the ship by leaving an experienced coach where he was!

But Karl was pissed that Kohl refused to allow him to go seek the North Carolina job.

And so Coach Karl in retaliation destroyed the team by demanding Ernie Grunfeld trade Ray Allen, Kevin Ollie and Ronald Murray and a pick for a piece of crap like Gary Payton and a guy named Desmond Mason...

:noway:.... Just a Horrible and senseless :crazy: trade...

That was the bottom line...Then Karl brought in Anthony Mason as well which was not bad in and of itself...but did not work out.

They were both to blame. :nod:
